For those of
you looking for scholarships for medical and (I think) dental school
2009-2010 National Health Service Corps Scholarship
Applications Due April 6
The
deadline for students to apply for the 2009-2010 National Health Service Corps
(NHSC) Scholarship Program is April 6, 2009.
The
program, administered by the Health Resources and Services Administration of
HHS, provides scholarships to health professions students in return for a
commitment to provide primary health services in critical shortage areas after
graduation.
The
American Recovery and Reinvestment Act signed into law on February 17 provided
additional funding for the NHSC and the program expects to be able to award
scholarships to more students than it did last year. The scholarship is tax
free except for the living stipend, which is set at $1,269 per month this year.
